Don’t Leave Paid Time on the Table
In today's fast-paced world, it can be difficult to strike a balance between work and personal life. That's why it’s essential to utilize paid time off to recharge, relax, and rejuvenate.
Did you know that in 2022, 55% of employer-provided paid time off went unused? Employees and their leaders can take steps to make sure that this important benefit doesn’t go to waste.
Employees should schedule time as soon as they know they’ll need it. Even if it’s not a big trip, set reminders throughout the year to take time off to do something you enjoy. Coordinate with your manager and colleagues to ensure a smooth transition before and after your time off.
Leaders and employers need to make sure that company culture is supportive of team members taking guilt-free time away from the workplace. Empowering employees to make the most of their benefits will lead to increased employee engagement, productivity, and overall satisfaction.
Remember, paid time off is a part of your compensation package. You’ve earned the opportunity to take time off for the work that you do.
